Sarah Palin Plays A Constitutional Expert On Fox News

Sarah Palin is the acknowledged poster-child for what Romney should avoid in picking a Vice President. But she’ll say almost anything to attack President Obama so what’s not to like if you’re Sean Hannity? Nothing, apparently. With a straight face, the Hannity show trotted out Palin to offer her insights into the legalities of President Obama's change in immigration policy. Predictably, Palin didn't let a little thing like a lack of a law degree or expertise in immigration hold her back. Maybe she can see the U.S. borders and the Constitution from her backyard.

Palin alleged that President Obama had "usurp(ed) Tenth Amendment rights" and called it "par for the course" for Obama. "Not respecting the balance of power in our federal government, not understanding at all the Constitutionality of the three branches of government."

Yes, if only our President had the keen legal understanding of the half-term governor of Alaska! She contiued:

If he truly was this Constitutional scholar... we need to go and speak to some of the students whom he lectured and taught and ask them if they understand that he didn't know what he was talking about when he told them... the Executive branch wouldn't be able to usurp and ignore the other branches of government.

Maybe in her next role on Fox News, Palin could assemble those students and correct the record!

When she was campaigning to be McCain’s nurse, she derided Obama by saying that a Constitutional Scholar was unsuited for the presidency. Oddly enough, she’s now an expert in the same field- didn’t we already see this movie with Jennifer Jason Leigh?

“we need to go and speak to some of the students whom he lectured and taught and ask them if they understand that he didn’t know what he was talking about when he told them…”
We???? Just what part in particular of whatever Obama’s former students had to say would this dumbass be capable of understanding?
Perhaps before this political ‘genius’ takes on constitutional law, Palin should ponder why it is that she has NEVER been asked to appear on any political panel of substance?

It looks like Rick Patel (and seriously, what kind of name is that for a good, ’Merkin conservative?*) just learned the meaning of “alliteration” and decided to grace us all with his (its?) newfound knowledge.

*’Cause you know, the only “Patels” I’ve ever known were kind of brown-skinned folks from India who, except for their “anchor babies,” tended to have accents that would be mocked by the conservative folks inhabiting the FoxNation.
